Basketball Jalen Pickett named ESPN Player of the Week after historic back-to-back performances

He deserves it. We are riding his performance as far as one guy can take us. If we can get consistent production from a few others then that is to the dance. We'll have to see but Pickett has put the team on his shoulders.
This helps get us an invite as they want the top players on tv in March. If we are on the edge his star power could be the difference.

Has that recognition ever happened before for a Penn State men's basketball player?
 
It makes zero difference…all about what we do on the court
I agree, every team has a star. What makes Pickett unique is the precipitous drop off to our #2 guy so he is the team most nights. In other words, if he doesn't play we probably lose by 25 every game. Indiana and TJD are kinda like that but I think we are even more.
